I was given Mat Kearney's new album Young Love﻿ by the One2One Network for review. I think this album is great! Mat's funky grooves, slow melodies and smooth voice really make his music worth listening to. This is his third album and I didn't know of him until now. His first, Nothing Left To Lose, won several BMI awards and the second album, City of Black and White, debuted on the Billboard 200 at #13. Mat has had music featured on hit tv series such as Grey's Anotomy, NCIS, Scrubs and many others.

Young Love Tracklisting:

1. Hey Mama

2. Ships In The Night

3. Count On Me

4. Sooner Or Later

5. Chasing The Light

6. Learning To Love Again

7. Down

8. She Got The Honey

9. Young Dumb And In Love

10. Rochester

11. Seventeen
